Oh sweet mercy, it’s summertime. I was born in the summer and I’m from the south, so I’m a pretty big fan of the hot heat and everything that comes with it. And music in the summer has to be something that’s pretty special too. Sometimes it needs energy, hooks and a bounce. A driving guitar or kick drum that makes you drive a little faster to chase away the stand still heat. And then other times it needs to be looser and easy-going, like a lo-fi lazy twang when it’s just too hot to move. All that is covered here – and most things in between. Good Medicine, Volume 13. Grab the sunscreen and consider yourself sonically prepared. Enjoy.

* If you like what you hear, you had better go support these bands. Buy their music. Go see them play. Show them some summer love, you heartless jerk.

***And if any of the bands on here don’t want their music on the mix, just let me know and I’ll remove it promptly. Thanks.
